January 12, 2010 a devastating earthquake damaged the capital, Port-Au-Prince, Haiti and other southern areas. Friendship responded through our partnership with Lott Carey Foreign Mission Convention within 2 weeks after the disaster with food and medical supplies. We supported the funding for the Habitat effort to build 1,880 temporary shelters and 581 latrines in Cabaret, Haiti. Our culminated effort completed 150 home developments in Leogane, Haiti. Lott Carey continues to have mission activities each year in Haiti.
FMBC has agreed to support the Basic Training school in their efforts to become certified by the Jamaica Ministry of Education. The school is Pre-K and has approximately 40 students.
Friendship Missionary Baptist Church’s influence in the global community reaches far beyond a visit to a faraway land but our presence and emphasis are reflected in love, financial support, evangelism, free medical care, and endearing fellowship.

Our mission began in January 2010 with Pastor Jones’ message from the pulpit – “Children are dying from Malaria in Zimbabwe at alarming rates. Friendship, we are about mission – and we have to help”.
Our ministry efforts in Zimbabwe include: Mosquito Nets, Tan-Roy Grinding Mill Operation, Martin Luther King, Jr. School. The partnership between Emmanuel Baptist Church (Zimbabwe) and Friendship Missionary Baptist Church has proven to be quite fruitful..
